John McCain is this much closer to checking off that must-have presidential photo-op: Candidate in Camo (doing something mannishly outdoorsy).
The Patriot-Ledger reports that John McCain visited the Bass Pro stores in Harrisburg, PA yesterday and:
[B]efore leaving McCain bought a fishing scale and a green, camouflaged jacket.
“Now all I need to do is catch a fish,” McCain joked while leaving the store.
And be caught catching a fish while wearing…camo? Who knew? (Clearly I’m not a hook and bullet swing voter).

In a conversation Monday with four reporters who hitched a ride downtown from Harrisburg International Airport, McCain made sure the bus lived up to its name.
In the 20-minute ride to the Hilton Harrisburg, McCain touched on issues such as the criteria for picking a running mate, the economy, national security and the conflict between Russia and Georgia.
So there was Talk, at least, and twenty minutes of it. Maybe this was the “Straight” stuff?
